STRENGTH

Strength is a very powerful word. Not only for its meanings but also for its appearance. When you see the word STRENGTH, what do you think of? Do you think of how much power does one have? Do you thinks of the qualities that a person harness?

I think of both, but more important I think of the qualities a person has within. Now everyone has weaknesses, and we always talk about that, but why don’t we see there strengths? I hear and know people that have gone through a rough time and has dealt with more than their fair share, but what do we learn from them? We usually just talk about their dealings with their issues and how sorry we feel for them. However, we should be praising them and learning from them. Despite what we think, they are strong because they persevere through their weaknesses and doubts to makes themselves better and stronger.

Look around yourself right now and notice your friends, family, and acquaintances. Look a little deeper at them, and see the stuff that you may call weakness, and see how they actually are strong, maybe even stronger than you. Take a play from their playbook and exemplify yourself to be a strong character of witness, and lead others to do the same.

Remember strength comes from within yourself through the battles that you have courageously fought.
